Former India captain and coach Rahul Dravid padded up with his son Anvay to play for Vijaya Cricket Club (Malur) in a Third Division (Group I) match for the Nassur Memorial Shield. Vijaya amassed 345 for seven against Young Lions Club. There are several instances of father-son duo playing in the same match at various levels such as WG Grace-Grace Jr, Lala-Surinder Amarnath, Dennis-Adam Lillee, Denis-Heath Streak, Shivnarine-Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Ian-Liam Botham among others. AG Aditya took four wickets (4/60) for the Young Lions. Remove Ad Swapnil was the top run-getter for the club with a 50-ball 107 with 12 fours and four sixes. The elder son of Dravids, Samit, is a pace-bowling all-rounder. He was in Guwahati for the Rajasthan Royals’ pre-season camp. He returned to the city a couple of days ago.
